    The esc you're going to need to burn up a 5650 motor...

    I'm still reading and may chime in later a bit more.

      Reality Check

      In an effort to counteract the absurd jaw-flapping being bantered about here by someone who has yet to demonstrate any actual valid on-the-water experience,(or to quote Ryan : "First.. you need to build a boat that can complete a run. ") I offer today's trial of a very nice TP Power 4060 5D 2040KV motor (yes, I know I posted this in another thread)

      Replacing the Neu 1521 1.5D in my Cheetah (which ran mid/high 50's with a 452/2), I propped down to a more conservative X447/3 and just ripped it up. I like this motor !!

        O.k. all done. It seems Twisted is as Twisted does.

        I want to thank you Smileday and Lifeng for your kind offers through email.

        Maybe this will help end the discussion on TP and HOR SSS motor comparison.

        By email I was contacted by Lifeng and I explained my part in this. What I'm not sure is if they have figured out it was Twisted that paraded the saying of TP is same as SSS HOR after I had said (and, I'm quite sure the way it was worded) that I initially made posts that they were very similar and they are. I was personally told by HOR that his SSS motors were made by people he hired that worked for TP Power at some time but, that's what I was told.
        I have both in hand, a 2200kv Fightercat (TP Power made) 4092 and a 4074 SSS HOR 2200Kv motor. Slight differences on the outside very SIMILAR inside, not the same though, that I NEVER SAID. I may have said they could be the same but, I never made a definitive statement and I can't. Sorry, I like motors, I like to see what makes them tick, just wish I had the pond time others have otherwise I'd lay down all the proof.

        Smileday and Lifeng, if I were more able bodied or had more physical energy this summer, I would have been your "Canadian Tester" of your motors.

        I did leave out some details of my emails from and to TP Power but, I must say, they are VERY accommodating and hopefully I can get more motor info next summer as this summer was tough on me physically. I will test out the FC 2200kv 4092 again next weekend at the applebutter festival. So far after over a year running I can't kill that motor, esc's I'm worried about more. Very hard to keep it on the water in my DF33 on 4s2p, 11600Mah total.
        Lifeng, I will take you up on your offer in the future, as I said winter is coming soon. I really want to see what I can do with the 4060-1870kv, 3Y motor in a new P-mono hull. Maybe it can come close to a 1521 1.5D, we will see!

        Thanks to Steve for just upgrading a great OPEN forum and thank you TP Power for a less expensive alternative!

        Twisted, I'm not throwing you under the bus, maybe you misunderstood me I'm not sure. If I had all my old Emails and PM's I could tell the exact story. All I can say is lets see your boats moving!! Lets here about how they run more than what you wanna do or whatcha got in the mail, been there done that, it's an empty shell.

          Rock On Tony, that thing is HAULING the mail. Maybe I'll try that motor instead of the 1870kv one.

          Floor it and turn right!

                    Thank you for your clarification Ray.

                    One comment I add to this thread: the offer given to Ray is for thanking for his cooperation with investigating a long-last rumor, which turned out to be some misleading information he was told. We currently do not have any motor test plan. We are always be consistent and supportive to our good dealer, as Steve on offshore here. If he has the motors someone need in stock, we suggest people to buy from him.

                          Ok here is a video of the SSS3674 2200kv motors in a 42'' Kevlar hull from Horracing.com the boat has been painted and also gutted and built to my way of thinking. The saddle for the new 150mm push lull rudder is awesome and I'm enjoying the boat very much. I can say this. The SSS3674 motors out perform the Leopard 4074 2200kv motors by a wide margin.

                          Hey I'm new to the boats as you all know. I dare any of you to find some one that has done more to a cat hull that sets it apart from the drones that cover these post. I install the wrong drive shaft and look what you have to say. I learn from my many builds and I'm not afraid to show them. Same would go with any testing. You guys would hide that fact so that that you can stay on the pedestal that you like so much. I have the SSS line of some of the motors and they are awesome. That had me comparing them to the TP line as they look the same as well as perform that same. Cost is the only thing that has me thinking that they aren't. Until that is tested and shows a difference, I will stay with that conclusion. Why spend $185 plus $16 for a motor that run s like a $105 motor un less it out performs it. I have pushed the SSS motor to the point that It took out my EX200 amp esc as well as the Castle XL150 esc. The motor has so much power that it destroys HPI tires in just min. of putting them on. I get great run times as well. smileday got a hold of me to tell me different. I knew posting this with you guy would have you up in arms, (I enjoy some of it) and wanted to share the differences with you. Hear is what I was looking for in the motors. First Speed from the motors. using a air prop I can test rpm and amp draw as well as temps and run times. Then real world runs in both a boat and 2 large scale truck and buggy. Here is what I look for in a performance motor. power and run times. How fast a motor gets hot is a good indication that the motor is efficient or not. If you guys have a problem with that then your really going to hate this. I also can give a rats a$$ about the name of it. In fact I look for some thing that is not the norm. Companies that are in the business of staying in business make things that will last so that people will buy it. Venders know this and that is why you see a lot of motors that look the same. How there able to market a product is what the consumer pays for as well as the product. TFL makes and sells more boats than all of your other rc boat combined. This gives them a huge advantage in buying power and also what is offered to them. They use cost and performance and well as production to keep up or on top of the market and venders wanting to use this company is going to put there best foot forward to get in bed with them. So have a name has very little to do with some large companies. Traxxas is a company that uses brand as a way to sell there product. So it can go both ways. Knowing the difference will help you know what to look for. I have been running Castle products know for over 6 years and they have my money and my high opinion of there products. A lot of that is service. Horracing has that service as well. I think his products are awesome as well and that is why I stand behind hor as well. I have been running Traxxas for well over 10 years and is a company that had me when the Revo first came out. My very first buggy was the Yokomo YZ-834B in 1983 300px-Wonder_Dog_Figher_SE.jpg300px-RPS_SE.jpg
                          I modified it 2 weeks into owning it. I hope this clears up what I know about rc in general. If not well I guess you will have to look at some of that scale builds I have posted as well as some of the innovations that I have came up with over the years such as the firt rear wing that was ever install on a revo came from parts that came from XTM 1/8 scale my be you could look into one of my scale motors for my large scale builds using a electric motor inside a scale motor with a gear reduction in side it as well. Or you can just hate me. Lol!

                            I am looking at a blur of words,
                            And not sure where they start or stop.
                            May be I just need to take some of those crazy pills and it will look much better to me.

                              @ twissted, nobody hates you, in fact your threads are read or you won't have received this many responses. If I may make a general observation and that will be that we are all proud of our ways of doing certain things and perhaps sometimes even think it is the best way, but we leave that for other people to be the judges.
                              Your claims are bold and both inclusive and conclusive, that is an invitation for disagreement and it's that simple.
                              Hope you take my input the right way, don't mean to offend you but I would like to at least explain my point of view on this matter.
                              Cheers!

                                You go into bashing before the test begins. I posted thoughts as to what I would like to do in the test and you chime in as here we go again.
                                Your thoughts on the test, that I want to do?
                                Or your thoughts in the motors them selves?
                                Did I miss something?
                                Or here we go again, the quality that you want to see in this test? Or my be you just don't care one way or the other? If that's so why chime in at all is my question.
